Free Fishing at Chester Woods


Event -
2026 Spring/Summer ECFE

Join us for a fun-filled family fishing trip at Chester Woods! This event is primarily designed for families with preschool-aged children, but all families with kids 18 and under are welcome.

No fishing license, prior experience, or equipment is needed thanks to the support of the Minnesota DNR. Just show up and enjoy the experience while Chester Woods Park and DNR staff take care of the rest.

Fishing will be catch-and-release only, so no fish will be kept. Snacks and water will be provided.

Busing is available for those who like to ride:

  • Bus boards at Northrop at 12:15 PM and departs at 12:30 PM
  • Bus boards at Chester Woods at 3:00 PM and departs at 3:15 PM
